U20568 Used ICOM IC-7851 Flagship HF/50MHz Dual-Receiver All-Mode 200W Transceiver

This pre-owned Icom IC-7851 flagship transceiver is in exceptional cosmetic and operational condition, displaying only a very minor cosmetic scuff on the top cover. The front anodized faceplate, high-resolution 7-inch TFT display, dual optical VFO encoders, multi-function concentric potentiometers, and silicone tactile buttons are in pristine shape. In July 2024, the radio underwent professional factory-grade service where the logic board and RF final amplifier stages were replaced and fully serviced; it has seen very limited on-air use since completion. The returned original logic board is included purely for historical/reference documentation. The rear brushed connection panel is immaculate, featuring four SO-239 antenna jacks (protected with factory silicone caps), dual BNC RX antenna loops, transverter I/O, reference frequency ports, DVI/EXT-Display video output, dual USB ports, LAN port, and an undamaged 120V/240V AC mains power receptacle with circuit breaker switch. It comes complete with its AC power cable, dust cover, accessory mounting bail/bracket,  main tuning knob assembly, Icom IC-7850/IC-7851 Technical Reference Book, blue documentation folder with service/radio records, and the original heavy-duty shipping container.

This flagship radio was over $13,000 when new. It works perfect and has no issues. If you are looking for a deal, this is it

The IC-7851 represents the pinnacle of Icom analog/digital engineering, designed as an ultra-high-performance flagship base station for world-class contesting, DXpeditions, and elite weak-signal HF operations. Featuring an internal mains power supply delivering a full 200 Watts of clean RF output across 160 meters through 6 meters, it is built with true independent dual receivers with dedicated local oscillators and dual independent digital signal processors. The receiver front end utilizes an ultra-sharp 1.2 kHz Optimum Roofing Filter combined with a Local Oscillator designed around a Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) that achieves a phase noise figure of –150 dBc/Hz (at 10 kHz offset), virtually eliminating reciprocal mixing and phase noise in crowded band conditions. Outfitted with high-speed dual real-time spectrum scopes, waterfall displays, audio peak filters (APF), digital Twin PBT, high-grade optical main tuning knobs, an integrated SD card slot, and rear DVI digital video output, the IC-7851 delivers an unrivaled HF operating experience.

Condition

  • Cosmetic Condition: Excellent pre-owned condition overall. Shows only a minor surface scuff on the top cabinet panel; front panel, bezels, and glass are pristine.

  • Service History: Logic board and RF final amplifier stages were professionally replaced/repaired in July 2024, with minimal operating hours logged since.The previous owner had some health issues after it came back and it has not been really used since

  • Display & Front Controls: The 7-inch color display is crisp and bright, showing sharp dual-scope panadapters and meter readouts. The weighted VFO dial and all concentric control knobs turn smoothly with luxurious factory resistance.

  • Rear Hardware & Ports: Antenna terminals 1 through 4, BNC ports, DVI external monitor output, Ethernet jack, and AC power inlet are pristine with clean protective caps in place.

  • Documentation & Packaging: Includes the original heavy-duty double-walled factory shipping carton, Technical Reference Book, and blue records folder.

Key Features

  • Flagship 200W Output: Heavy-duty internal AC power supply provides 200 Watts continuous RF output across 160M–6M in all modes (SSB, CW, RTTY, PSK31/63, AM, and FM).

  • True Dual Independent Receivers: Dual completely separate receiver sections with dedicated mixers, local oscillators, and DSP engines for simultaneous dual-band reception and diversity listening.

  • Ultra-Low Phase Noise Local Oscillator: Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) architecture yields a –150 dBc/Hz phase noise floor to pull weak signals out of severe band noise.

  • 1.2 kHz Optimum Roofing Filter: Superb close-in dynamic range that effortlessly rejects strong adjacent-channel QRM during high-density contests.

  • Dual Real-Time Spectrum Scopes & Waterfall: High-speed sweep rates with selectable waterfall displays allow simultaneous band monitoring for both Main and Sub receivers.

  • Digital Video & PC Connectivity: Rear DVI-I port drives external high-resolution monitors; integrated LAN and USB ports provide network and PC control.

  • Four Dedicated Antenna Ports: Rear panel incorporates 4 SO-239 antenna connectors with automatic memory switching, plus dedicated RX antenna loop connections.

  • Dual VFO Encoders: Independent physical tuning knobs for Main and Sub receivers with adjustable torque damping.
